Improved methods in long term venous access using the P.A.S. Port.

An over-all lower cost implantable chronic venous access is readily accomplished using the Cath-finder and implantable P.A.S. Port. This system has few complications and is less expensive, time saving and easy to maintain. The Cath-finder system allows the surgeon to access accurately the central venous circulation without the use of a fluoroscope. The implantable P.A.S. Port has wide acceptance with many types of patients, including those with tumors, cystic fibrosis and AIDS.
